crookesey 631 #2382 Posted May 8, 2022 If there’s anything that beats the hell out of starting WW3 it’s not starting WW3. Also if assassination of leaders such a Putin was that easy Hitler and Stalin would have been prime contenders, it’s the likes of the Kennedy brothers that make themselves targets.

In my experience, if it's a Right Wing Media view, it's highly probable that it's wrong. Most British newspapers are Right Wing (Murdoch's) and spread evermore increasing bile.

" The World comprises many ideologies. philosophies and religions. Christian, Islam, Hindu, Buddhist, Sikh and Jewish. And secularists Communists, Atheists, Agnostics. They all believe their particular way to live, and their view of the World, is the correct one. They have their bibles, korans, torahs, and manifestos. At any given time, they are at war with each other. They describe their enemies, as Godless, Infidels, heretics, blasphemers, unenlightened, materialists and cults. Like many other animals we share the planet with, "humans are social animals, and not very well equipped to live a life of solitude. We bond socially with like-minded people forming groups. Even if we have a falling out with another member, the powerful, instinctive desire to belong to the tribe means we're unlikely to leave or join another group" - (Medium) At the extremes you have lockstep lemmings, ants and bees on the one hand and solo bears, rhinos, leopards on the other. They all survive, one way or the other. If we are to understand amd deal with the world, as it is, we cannot ignore the fact that vast majority disagree with our own particular tribal viewpoint, especially if it is always expressed as "morally superior". Understanding each viewpoint and examining the motivations of others, even our enemies, is not tantamount to supporting them. It is actually a way to formulate your defense against them. Calling them names is unhelpful, and counter productive. An Einstein 'thought experiment'. If Scotland, Wales, and Ireland were to seek independence from Her Majesty's United Kingdom, a la Ukraine, what would be your reaction? And, if they sought the military support of say, Russia, China, Cuba, or North Korea to ensure their independence? Russian and Chinese ships unloading missiles in Glasgow, Dublin and Cardiff?

Ireland have been independent "from Her Majesty's United Kingdom" since 1922. A better comparison would be what if a foreign country (UK) did not support the independence of a country (RoI) supporting a separatist enclave of people many of whom they'd previously moved to that country (Ulster Scots in NI) and then decided to invade and reoccupy the rest of that country. That is essentially what Russia has done with Ukraine. Given all the other formerly Soviet states that also have enclaves of Russian/Russia aligned people supported by Russia (Moldova with Transnistria, similar areas in the Baltic states), it's no surprise that they are nervous about Putin's stated aim of rebuilding the Russian Empire.

When he won't send his own troops to fight his own enemy, Putin. The Ukraine's best interest is to make a deal with the Russians, It's not like they are strangers, Not sacrifice themselves to help Biden's flagging popularity polls. Major blunder, more more than that, sick, dangerous, and cowardly. The needless death count should be laid at his door! Yes. he should be removed. Before the whole of Eastern Europe, the Middle East and South East Asia blows up! Possible War Criminal charges here. Why the Hell do you bring Biden in to every single problem? Do you think for one minute that anyone in Ukraine or Russia gives a flying flamingo about America, Trump, or Biden? Republicans in the US care only about the US. ........... America first. MAGA. If you must comment about Ukraine v Russia, please contain it to Russia v Ukraine. It has nob all to do with America's President. Any right thinking Leader should do all they can to help ANY oppressed country The World doesn't need Republican back stabbing at this time. We need unity against Putin, so get off Biden and his supporters {most of America's} backs. Support Ukraine by any means possible. Slava Ukraine. Have you not noticed? No other nation has sent in troops or offensive weaponry to Ukraine. Sleepy Joe's fault I suppose?
